Spending the Holidays at Disneyland

     As the shuttle bus pulls up on the curve of ‘the happiest place on earth’, I no longer could hold in my excitement as I step out to have my eyes lay upon Disneyland. As my family and I walk down the sidewalk, I reminisce back to when I was just a little girl just like it was my first time visiting the theme park. My parents said that I was just like a kid in a candy store. 

     My cousin hastily drags me as she can’t wait to start on the rides. We wanted to go on every ride there was, especially Space Mountain. We quickly got into the inside corridor of the building as I see the largest model of a space ship I have ever seen. My cousin and I step into the seats as the cart begins to move forward. I can feel the wind blow against my face as we stat our ‘adventure through space’. The cart ran up and down the track as images of the stars appear before my eyes, just as if I were actually in space, where I feel as if I am able to touch the stars. My adrenaline started to race, as if I were in a marathon where there was no end. When it can to an end, I slowly stepped off the ride as my feet have finally stepped onto solid ground where I would try to find my balance as my head was throbbing with excitement and my heart beating so fast it was as if I was going two-hundred miles per hour.

Despite the rides being one of the best parts in Disneyland, I can't help but fall head-over-heels for the parade and shows. Due to this being the time for the holidays, it was made suited for the occasion. Followed by the sweet sound of Christmas songs, the floats follow behind, having a showcase of dancing with all of the beloved Disney characters following behind. At California Adventure, my family and I were able to watch the new World of Color Winter Dreams with a Frozen special addition. The World of Color also included a sing-a-long, where I was able to hear the little kids around me singing at the top of their lungs. I absolutely loved seeing the beautiful lights and water as they would shoot up into the night sky.
